Hotel Pompadour

Great experience. No complaints. We had an issue and management was incredibly understanding, accommodating, and addressed our issue expeditiously; we were so appreciative of their communication and the care that they took. This place is not for everyone so it’s important to set expectations. No elevator. No television. No valet. Don’t expect a staff buzzing around and visible all of the time. It’s more like an Air BnB experience but that doesn’t mean that management and staff are not accessible. That being said, don’t stay here if you are a pansy and want a typical hotel experience and want to be fussed over. And don’t stay here if you have issues with French Quarter and Marigny sights and sounds all around; but if you love it like we do, this place is for you. The location is great as it’s one block away from Frenchman… it’s about a minute walk from the hotel. We stayed during Mardi Gras and it made our stay even more enjoyable and memorable.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Hotel Pompadour! This hidden gem in New Orleans is not just a place to stay; it is a destination in itself, filled with soul, character, and breathtaking beauty. From the very first conversation I had with the staff regarding my plans to propose here, they were absolute angels. They went above and beyond to be helpful and accommodating at every single step, ensuring that every detail was perfect. Their kindness and professionalism turned a nerve-wracking moment into a seamless, joyous experience. And the facility? It is simply stunning. The hotel is filled with the most incredible, larger-than-life artwork by James Michalopoulos. His paintings and sculptures give the entire space a vibrant, energetic, and romantic atmosphere that you cannot find anywhere else. The unique architecture and artistic flair literally served as the backdrop for our engagement photos, and they turned out like works of art themselves. This beautiful space will forever hold the most special place in our hearts as the setting where we began our next chapter together. To top it all off, the location is absolutely perfect. You are literally steps away from the best of New Orleans! We took a romantic stroll to Jackson Square, explored the vibrant stalls of the French Market, and enjoyed the incredible live music on Frenchmen Street—all without needing a car or rideshare. Thank you to the entire Hotel Pompadour team for making our engagement unforgettable. They even gave us a bottle of champagne, a box of chocolates and a hand written letter to congratulate us. This will always be "our spot," and we cannot wait to return for every anniversary!!
